Soil4Climate: To Meat or Not To Meat?

To meat or not to meat? That is the question. Recent innovations in lab-grown meats seem to be making non-meat burgers and tacos a tastier option than they have ever been. But are these products too good to be true? And are non-meat alternatives always more ecologically responsible than actual meat? This week’s guests on Sea Change Radio have some thoughts on the matter. We speak with the co-founders of Soil4Climate, Seth Itzkan and Karl Thidemann, about the mission of their organization. They lay out the benefits of regenerative farming and grazing practices, as well as a lifestyle that includes eating plenty of meat. They also explain why they hope companies like Impossible Foods ultimately fulfill the promise in their name, and cease to be possible.

Richard Grossman: Dismantling Corporations - Archive Part ONE of TWO

Ralph Nader called Richard Grossman the preeminent historian of corporations. In his writings and teaching Grossman warned us that unchecked corporate power would lead to the destruction of democracy. He said that the American revolution was fought less against the King but “against the crown corporations, the Hudsons Bay and East India Corporations.” And he believed that it is time to remember that fight and assert sovereignty of the people over corporations and the corporate state. In this speech Grossman provocatively calls for dismantling “the thousand largest corporations off the face of the earth.” Richard Grossman’s research showed him that in the original intent of American revolutionaries corporations did not have rights, they only had privileges, and only those that we the people bestow on them. They were to be limited by a revocable charter that specified what they were allowed to do; it’s board and officers were to be fully liable for any harms the corporation did; and they initially had none of the free speech rights that go along with person-hood. If Richard Grossman were still alive today he would be shocked to see that corporations and bankers from Exxon to Goldman Sachs, from General Dynamics to Lockheed Martin, from Wells Fargo to pipeline builder Energy Transfer, no longer are limited to purchasing influence by buying congress people one by one – but now own and run large parts of the government directly.

Lucy Grealy - What is Ugly

The Autobiography of a Face Lucy Grealy, a victim of Ewing’s Sarcoma, beginning when was nine years old suffered from a cancer of the jaw that is 90% fatal in the first few years. In Lucy’s case, it was not fatal. Rather it brought about many intense and emotional experiences that most of us could not imagine. She had a large part of her lower jaw removed when she was about nine and half and for two and a half years had weekly chemotherapy treatments. Throughout her teenage years, she had multiple surgeries to reshape her jaw. Her book, “Autobiography of a Face,” reveals her experiences, her mistaken conflation of beauty and love, and what she learned about emotions, both her own and other people’s. Lucy Grealy recommends “100 Years of Solitude,” by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Originally Broadcast: December 5, 1994

Incident in Gulf of Oman is a US Provocation

The Israeli Lobby and the First Generation of the Palestine Conflict

We spend a good deal of time on This Week In Palestine exploring the power of the Israeli lobby because of the significant role it plays in the manipulation of Congress, the president, the media, and therefore the American people. Walter Hixson, Professor of History at Akron University, has written a new book, "Israel’s Armor: The Israeli Lobby and the First Generation of the Palestine conflict," that traces the roots of the Israeli lobby all the way back to the birth of the Zionist movement. In today's presentation, Professor Hixson explains and discusses the book's thesis. Before that, we quote an article by Ramzy Baroud that takes on the pending so-called "deal of the century" authored by Jared Kushner, which is supposedly soon to be released. It appears to be dead on arrival. By now, it is perfectly clear that the "deal of the century" is not a peace plan, nor was it ever intended to be, despite what its chief architect and White House adviser Jared Kushner has been claiming. It is yet another American imperial undertaking driven by the misguided notion that it is in the best interest of the American people that Israel remains the regional hegemon and is enabled to swallow the rest of the occupied Palestinian territories.

Report Back: On the Ground During "Coup" Venezuela

Member of the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, Sean Orr speaks of their delegation to Venezuela to investigate conditions on the ground and speak with various officials, community leaders and people about the conditions imposed by the U.S. Government's hostilities, and how they are countering them; the U.S. press blames the crisis on "failed" Socialism and President Maduro while the U.S. finds it necessary to ramp up its blockade, economic interference and attacks due to popular support for the Venezuelan Constitution by the majority of its citizens. Timed to coincide with May Day celebrations Sean found himself in the mist of a coup attempt, along with his companions as they were guests of a government supporter, a university professor, who lived in an opposition neighborhood close to the military base where an attempt was made to seize tanks and other weapons. He recounts what followed when the coup was announced from the street, on radio and TV, their escape toward the city center, what they saw and contrary to what CNN was reporting, what wasn't. When finally they arrived at the Presidential Palace they witnessed the crowds assembling in defense of their Bolivarian Revolution; he reports that his group, while not the only foreigners there, were the only Americans. He mentions that the US Government has embargoed the shipment of insulin to Venezuela and China's efforts to provide an alternative supply.
